Participants over 50 may need an extra test, either in their home country or upon arrival, for an additional fee.
Prepare your mind and spirit by engaging in familiar disciplines like meditation, prayer, or yoga. Maintain a positive mindset and embrace the transformative power within you. While our masters conduct ceremonies, remember that true change stems from within. Pray for opportunities to shape your destiny with your own hands.
Flights to Cusco may experience delays or cancellations due to weather conditions. Plan to arrive at least two days before the retreat begins. Consider booking with reliable airlines like LATAM and contact us for personalized changes to your itinerary.
Cusco’s high altitude may induce sickness, so acclimatize by drinking coca tea, water, and herbal teas upon arrival. In case of worsened symptoms, inform us immediately for professional assistance. We always suggest to arrive in the Sacred Valley a day or two before the retreat to minimize altitude-related discomfort.
Pack essentials like a day backpack, rain gear, waterproof shoes, warm clothing, flashlight, camera, sunscreen, insect repellent, toiletries, swimsuit, cash, and necessary documents including passport and student ID if applicable.
